A bit yellow/green on the white balance there, but the high ISO performance is just outstanding. A local pro who shoots a lot of high buck weddings is using one now as a backup to his D3. It's a great camera for that type of event. Heck, it's a great camera for anything. But when you have constantly changing light and near dark conditions, it's superb. Paul
